The Streets Lyrics

Into the darkness we went, cold and tired

I cursed to Hell the chance we wouldn’t survive

We fled the arms of tyrants, violence and lies

And used the stars to map our way through the night


‘Cause honestly, we hadn’t the numbers

to walk the streets looking for trouble

Stuck to the dark, for the fear that they’d come

and tear us apart


With gentle steps and steady breaths we we’re quiet

Our hearts kept pounding like a thundering sky

Walk without shadows ‘cause the moon was a spy

and used the darkness to escape before light


‘Cause honestly, we hadn’t the numbers

to walk the streets looking for trouble

Stuck with the dark for the fear that they’d come

and tear us apart


Finally, it shows where the sun sets

and open seas crashing upon them

gave us away to commit our escape

and we left that place


And darling, we have traveled in wonder

I finally see the spell that we’re under

cast by your heart when we kissed in the dark

and we hid from it all
